The quoting problem

Your team spends 45-90 minutes per quote. Meanwhile, the fastest quote wins the business.

Manual quoting

  • Log into 3-5 carrier portals separately
  • Copy-paste rates into spreadsheets
  • Manually calculate surcharges
  • Format and email PDF quote

45-90 min

per quote, on average

With Ratiq

Automated quoting

  • AI reads and parses incoming RFQ
  • All carriers queried in parallel
  • Surcharges auto-applied per client rules
  • PDF generated, one-click approve & send

Under 10 min

end-to-end, fully automated

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Ratiq.

How does Ratiq fetch carrier rates?

Ratiq connects to carrier APIs (Maersk, CMA CGM, etc.) using your own credentials. For carriers without APIs, we use secure browser automation. Rates are fetched in parallel — typically under 10 seconds for all carriers.

Is the auto-reply safe? Will it send wrong quotes?

Auto-Reply has a hard confidence gate: it never fires if AI extraction confidence is below 90%. Low-confidence quotes always require manual review. Auto-Reply is off by default — you opt in per company, and a 15-second countdown with cancel button gives you full control.

How are carrier credentials stored?

All carrier API keys and login credentials are encrypted with AES-256 (Fernet) before being stored. They are never exposed in logs, UI, or API responses. Only the quote engine decrypts them at runtime to fetch rates.

Can I use Ratiq from Slack instead of the web UI?

Yes. When a quote is ready, you get a Slack notification with Approve, Edit, and Reject buttons. The Edit flow opens a Slack modal — you can change carrier, adjust rates, add notes, and send the quote without leaving Slack. Microsoft Teams and Discord are also supported.

What happens when my trial ends?

You get a warning email at day 25. At day 30, your account switches to read-only — you can still view existing quotes but can't process new ones. Upgrade anytime to resume. No data is deleted.

Can I customize surcharges per client?

Absolutely. Each client has its own surcharge configuration: fuel surcharges, handling fees, documentation fees, insurance, custom line items. Rules are applied automatically based on cargo type, weight thresholds, and more. No coding required — just fill in the table.
